fraud claims

Original Article

A group of more than 120 retired military officers have written President Joe Biden to tell him his election was less than legitimate – while questioning his mental acuity. The letter echoes former President Donald Trump's claims of widespread election fraud – which have not been borne out in the courts – and comes on a day when Rep. Liz Cheney ripped Trump for his claim that the election was 'stolen.' 'Without fair and honest elections that accurately reflect the 'will of the people' our Constitutional Republic is lost,' the letter from retired officers says.

It is a well written letter - I encourage everyone to read the entire thing. It touches on many, if not all our concerns regarding this fraudulent so-called administration and the puppet sitting in the oval office (on non absorbent seat cushions, I hope.)

Great, great letter by the Generals. Can we expect biden the cheater to read it? No. He will be told about it and that's all. All L.dotters - take the time to read the letter. It is powerful and most uplifting. Nicely written by the Team. And Lizard Cheney, the letter makes you a very very small individual now.

The 2020 election was stolen, but that is not all of them. The 1960 and 1992 elections were stolen, and that is not all. We have had election fraud for many years, but now it is surfacing on the internet. People are videoing it with their cellphones. The government and the Dark State are spying on us, but we can see them also, and we are learning who they are.

These Officers still have contacts in the military so would they be able to plot action? An interesting scenario. Watch what those French officers do as well.

I'm glad to see this. "ret. LTG Thomas McInerney, USAF" stands out like one of those fb personality tests "the first word you see tells you...." He made some bold claims, however, which some of us put on social media. About a firefight and lost lives. That either needs to be true or this story gets flushed down the same waste pipe with it. Is that account still "operational" as they say in spy movies?

The Daily Mail is, of course, quite biased in the article but they’re are a liberal rag. I am sure a great deal of thought was put into the decisions of these retired military leaders. They would not do this cavalierly. Clearly, they are worried because they see what has gone on and continues to go on with our elections. It takes courage to sign your name to a letter like this because the media will come after them and they know the havoc they can wreak. What is it with seemingly reasonable people that they will not acknowledge the massive voter fraud committed in 2020? Do they purposely claim ignorance so they cannot be labeled a conspiracy theorist? Americans’ right to a free and fair election has been trampled in the dust by a lawless corrupt party that could not win any other way than to cheat. The more we are told to shut up and accept the theft, the more we are convinced that we are right. Those who have neither the courage or integrity to challenge a result that makes zero common sense and even less mathematical viability appear to be ignorant of the known facts or complicit in one way or another. By the way, just because something has not been proven in court does not mean that it is not true or has no merit. What it means is that no court will take this up for fear of the backlash they will receive from the political/media mob and then eventually from the street mob. Sadly, it appears that the mob is an effective tool to prevent truth from coming to light.

The Democrats smugly claim that there was no fraud in the last election. Now that is a LIE, because their has been proof that the some computerized vote counts gave fraudulent results. The question is, was the fraud enough to turn the election. It is impossible to prove either way because last minute changes were made that eliminated procedures to verify the integrity of the votes counted. We do know a couple of things. There were many more votes of questionable integrity than needed to turn the election. And, this is the only election in our history where the Presidential candidate had "coattails" but lost the election.

To all of the Democrats and RINO's (especially after Liz Cheney's remarks yesterday): when are you going to stop getting in the way of these election audits and any action to refute fraud? When are you going to allow the audit to continue and provide everything necessary so the Joe Biden win can finally be legitimized?

This was no small act on the part of these officers. By signing their names, they certainly risk consequences. Democrats are vindictive by nature and this will certainly set them off. Who knows what they are capable of doing now. It could be anything from doxing and continuous attacks in the enemedia to what the Russians did to all those brave Polish officers in the forest.

I knew this sentiment was out there, being a retired military officer myself (not flag), but was being suppressed by the feckless media and top brass. The process to brainwash the military has been going on for at least as long as similar efforts in academia and the media. It has not been as effective in the military as in other segments of our culture because military men and women are naturally patriotic and strong in the in self-sufficiency. It is shocking that the current narrative has it that to even question or speculate whether there might have been nefarious activity during the 2020 elections has been labeled ignorant or even subversive, even the likes of Congressman Cheney.

Joe's mental condition must not be ignored. But Joe must serve every day of hos four year term. He was elected by the people, and those who selected him need to see this through. Joe must be a bell hung around the necks of the globalist cats - from "Democrats" to global interests, including the media. So must "conservatives", many of whom are lethargic in a time of domestic turmoil while talking of watering the mythical Liberty Tree. Dismissive of the forces that now seem to engulf our country.

My heartfelt thanks to all of the retired Generals and Admirals who signed their names to this letter. As we've learned from the ongoing corruption of our political system, all that's necessary for evil to flourish is for good men to do nothing. As the signers remind us, honest elections reflect the will of the people. We're not getting that. We know Joe Biden isn't up to "leading" anything. His feeble mind lets it slip from time to time that he needs to get "permission" from some unnamed "superior(s)" before he can speak to the press or the American people. He worries before the stunned American people that he'll "get in trouble." The 120 signers of that letter have stepped up and shown they have far more integrity than the liberal politicians and MSM enablers covering for Joe Biden.

This is very important. But what's even more important is that WE stay on this. We must be vocal and make ourselves heard. Now that these very brave and important people have come forward, we can keep the momentum going. Every one of us needs to find a way to vet involved to restore our country. We need people to come together in a common cause, organize, get others to join in, create rallies to motivate and incentivize people, plan and strategize, and take actions necessary to ensure our country's integrity and that the power goes back to us, the citizens. We need to get the last election overturned -- DO NOT fear the implications. Placing the country in crisis by exposing the fraud and overturning the last election is much BETTER and HEALTHIER for our Republic than to pretend that everything worked well as "always" last November. Let's take advantage of this and the election audits now and start our movement toward restoring our nation!! We MUST take this opportunity because it is likely our last! I believe God is giving us one final chance to do what's right.!! Please, let's not throw it away. There may never be another.

Prince Harry and 'bonkers' First Amendment –

Posted by Moritz55 5/17/2021 11:05:31 PM Post Reply
The media went into a frenzy this weekend when the bonny Prince Harry gave a huge harrumph to the First Amendment. On a show appropriately called the "Armchair Expert," Harry declared the First Amendment "bonkers" and expressed frustration about how it protects the media in its "feeding frenzy" over his life. Harry’s criticism of the First Amendment can be dismissed as the unfamiliarity of a royal refugee. However, it is actually far more serious than that. Harry and his American wife Meghan Markle have attacked media rights in England and succeeded under the laws of the United Kingdom. They are now joining a growing anti-free speech movement

During the Chicago Cubs’ long century of futility, the old joke was that every year they peaked on Opening Day. Is it too early to wonder if Joe Biden’s presidency did the same thing? The inauguration promise to bring healing to a fractured nation didn’t last the short ride back down Pennsylvania Avenue on Jan. 20. But what of the real Biden project that was revealed once the festivities ended: the transformation of America into a land of equity and inclusion, one that Michelle Obama could finally be proud of, that Bernie Sanders could count as Cuba’s equal, and where LeBron James could feel safe and fairly rewarded?

Matthew Lohmeier, the Space Force commanding officer who was relieved of duty Friday for decrying Marxist ideologies and critical race theory, which he said are gaining influence in the military, on a recent podcast. Rep. Dan Crenshaw, R-Texas — himself a former Navy SEAL — said the military needs to prepare service members for combat and told social media users to not let the story "slip away."

At a moment when people should be feeling upbeat, liberated and hopeful, optimism has cratered. How could that happen? Maybe it’s because the country has awakened to this: Donald Trump is no longer in the White House creating offensive tweets, but instead we have Joe Biden there creating offensive policies. That’s the trade-off American voters chose on Nov. 3. The just-released University of Michigan monthly survey showed consumer sentiment slumping to 82.3 in May from 88.3 in April, the lowest reading since February and below analysts’ forecasts. Consumers’ expectations about the future also plummeted, to 77.6 from 82.7 in April.

U.S. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., criticized President Biden over his Wednesday statement of support for Israel amid escalating violence with Hamas, claiming he gave little context for what stoked the tensions and was consequently "siding with occupation." Biden told reporters Israel has a right to defend itself "when you have thousands of rockets flying into your territory." Ocasio-Cortez tweeted that Biden had failed to mention the pending evictions of dozens of Palestinians from their homes in East Jerusalem in favor of Israelis and the Israeli police raid of the Al-Aqsa mosque that left hundreds of worshippers hurt as an instigator to Hamas’ rocket attacks.

"Wonder Woman" actress Gal Gadot's attempt to post a unifying message on Twitter amidst the ongoing violence in the Middle East backfired as critics instead assailed the actress for her experience fighting in the Israeli Defense Forces when she was younger and accused her of being a "propaganda" tool for the Israeli military. The Palestinian militant group Hamas launched rockets into Israel this week, targeting Jerusalem, southern Israel, and Tel Aviv. Israel responded by launching a series of airstrikes, killing a top Hamas commander and several other senior Hamas militants.

(In 2019, in the first Trump impeachment, Cheney voted no on both articles against the president.)

IDF spokesman Lt. Col.

Goodyear to phase out petroleum-based

Posted by OhioNick 5/17/2021 2:33:27 PM Post Reply
For decades engineers have used petroleum to make everyday products. It's still commonly used in everything from rubbers and plastics to chemicals and asphalt. But this useful product comes from crude oil, which is often criticized by activists and experts as harmful to the environment, citing oil spills and fracking incidents. Recent studies from the last decade have shown that petroleum isn't as efficient as some once thought. Now, companies, engineers and scientists aim to replace it with plant-based oils, specifically soybeans.

Vice President Kamala Harris keeps a list of reporters and other political types who might be racist, according to a profile published in the Atlantic on Monday. "The vice president and her team tend to dismiss reporters. Trying to get her to take a few questions after events is treated as an act of impish aggression," writes Edward-Isaac Dovere. "And Harris herself tracks political players and reporters whom she thinks don't fully understand her or appreciate her life experience." That list presumably includes the people at Vogue magazine, who managed to enrage libs by putting Harris on the cover earlier this year. It remains unclear why the libs became enraged;

Amazon has a goal to get rid of a certain percentage of employees every year - and three managers told Insider they felt so much pressure to meet the goal that they hired people just to fire them: "We might hire people that we know we're going to fire, just to protect the rest of the team," one manager said. The practice is informally called "hire to fire," in which managers hire people, internally or externally, they intend to fire within a year, just to help meet their annual turnover target, called unregretted attrition (URA). A manager's URA target is the

McConaughey has been talking to “deep-pocketed” moderate Republicans and business leaders in the Lone Star State to gauge their support.

The media went into a frenzy this weekend when the bonny Prince Harry gave a huge harrumph to the First Amendment. On a show appropriately called the "Armchair Expert," Harry declared the First Amendment "bonkers" and expressed frustration about how it protects the media in its "feeding frenzy" over his life. Harry’s criticism of the First Amendment can be dismissed as the unfamiliarity of a royal refugee. However, it is actually far more serious than that. Harry and his American wife Meghan Markle have attacked media rights in England and succeeded under the laws of the United Kingdom. They are now joining a growing anti-free speech movement

Last week, Hailey Davidson, a transgender woman, won her first professional title in Florida, topping LPGA player Perrine Delacour for the win. The same day, she was sent an email by the USGA saying she’s met the organization’s Gender Policy eligibility criteria and can now compete in its championships and she’s hoping to hear similar news from the LPGA via a reciprocity agreement, according to Golfweek. So much for fairness in women’s sports. In January, Ms. Davidson underwent gender reassignment surgery, and she’s been undergoing hormone treatments since 2015.(Snip)The science in these cases is clear. Biological men have more muscle mass, larger hearts and lungs,
